Who are the people who can not see the forest through the trees?
Unless the people, through unified action, arise and take charge of their government, they will find that their government has taken charge of them. Independence and liberty will be gone, and the general public will find itself in a condition of servitude to an aggregation of organized and selfish interest." - President Calvin Coolidge

Pretty much sounds like us. Our government officials get into office and forget their constituents but have great rewards from special interest lobbyists.
